In this heartfelt episode, Adrianne welcomes Yoga teacher and multi-passionate woman Zaz Grumbar, who shares how Yoga helped her reconnect with her body, breath, and self during some of life’s most difficult transitions.
Zaz speaks honestly about overcoming an eating disorder through ahimsa, managing menopause and anxiety with breathwork, healing chronic pain with Forrest Yoga, and finding herself again after feeling lost in parenting and career shifts.
Her story is a reminder that Yoga doesn’t ask us to be perfect—it invites us to come home.
The power of ahimsa in healing body image
Breathwork for anxiety, menopause, and emotional regulation
Forrest Yoga and physical healing after failed medical interventions
Navigating identity shifts as a parent and career changer
How Yoga keeps you connected through life’s chaos
“Ahimsa gave me a way to relate to my body with kindness, not control.”
“Pranayama didn’t just calm me—it reminded me I was still here.”
“Yoga helped me return to myself when I felt like I had disappeared into my roles.”
A slow breath in, a longer breath out.
A pause.
And a reminder: You are allowed to come back to yourself.
When was the last time I felt fully connected to myself?
What helped me feel that way?
